Joseph maurice ravel (French: [ʒɔzɛf mɔʁis ʁavɛl]; 7 March 1875 – 28 December 1937) was a French composer, pianist and conductor.

Episode 44: pity
The English terminology surrounding "pity" comes from Latin—from pietas—but as students of classical Latin know, this word is best translated as "dutifulness" or "loyalty." The development of an ancient word for dutifulness into our contemporary idea of mercy or compassion is a strange story, weavi…
Minnesota Now: Sept. 10, 2026
It’s been 25 years since the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001 unfolded and left nearly 3,000 people dead. We reflected on how that day forever changed our lives.
We heard stories about Minnesotans who were on hijacked planes, inside the Twin Towers, and watching with horror from home.
We also spoke to a M…
Episode 45: disgruntle
Onomatopoeia is a phenomenon where words mimic the sounds they denote: fizz, click, meow. It's the idea underlying the word "disgruntle," which has something to do with the noises made by pigs. In this episode, we consider how the grunting of pigs ended up describing dissatisfied and upset people. …
Episode 46: virtue
We hear a lot about virtue in all kinds of contexts: civic virtue, cardinal virtues, and so on. In today's episode, we look at the roots of "virtue" in the Roman word virtus.

Episode 47: paradox
There are lots of ideas that seem like they shouldn't be true: that one infinity might be larger than another or that mass could somehow be equated with energy. We consider a related concept in today's episode: paradox. Today, a paradox is generally understood as a statement that is self-contradict…

Episode 48: cyber
Our era is defined by technological development: artificial intelligence, speedy data connections, the very Internet itself. In this episode, we consider a word at the heart of modern technology: cyber. It's a word with a strange-sounding Greek ancestor (κυβερνήτης), whose widely used derivatives a…
Episode 49: perpetual
The phenomenon of time has always puzzled humans. In today's episode, we consider "perpetual," a word that asks us to think about the infinite expanse of time that we all rush forward into. There are some other words relating to movement or stillness—impetus, permanent, momentum, inertia—that come …
